Rebecca, Rob, and Robert Lybbert sat behind us.

We also saw President and Sister Thompson and Ellen Nelson but couldn't find them outside for a picture.

The crowds at Legacy Theater have been outstanding. Today, I kept looking at the man in blue and he kept looking at me. Finally I approached him and said, "You look very familiar to me." He said, "I'm from Mt. Vernon." I said, "My name was Pugh." and he said, "I know you. My niece is married to your son."

Leanne's Uncle Larry brought his Priest Quorum to conference. What a great experience for these young men.

Elder Millet with Melanie Shepherd, a friend of Joette's. She and her husband were attending a Brazil Mission reunion at Theater 5 in the North Visitors Center. As we walked by a gentleman said, "Hello, Sister Millet." That caught Melanie's ear and she introduced herself to Elder Millet.

She said she had talked to Joette recently, knew we were here and was on the look out for us. It's a small world at conference time.

Here we are spending 2 days exploring Temple Square. Emily, Christian, and Anna. First the movie at Legacy Theatre, "Joseph Smith, the Prophet of the Restoration." Then we enjoyed the underground parking areas and ended up for lunch at the Lion House Pantry. We also toured the Beehive House.
The reflecting pool turned out to be a fountain. Christian said, "The water looks like a temple."

It's even more fun to experience the temple up close. This is the east door up a very high set of stairs.

Our tour of Temple Square ended at the Christus in the North Visitors Center rotunda. Leslie, Christian, Sterling Calabio (Leslie's Dad) Emily, Elder and Sister Millet, and Anna. The Sister Missionaries loved the children.
